Vision Towards Quantum Humanities: An Architecture of a Holistic QML Environment
Johanna Barzen
The benefits of using classical computers in the humanities has been proven by the establishment of the digital humanities. Recently, quantum computers reached a state in which advantages can be realized in certain use cases. E.g., initial feasibility studies in the humanities have shown that some advantages can already be achieved, and much more can be expected, especially in applying quantum machine learning. But building quantum applications requires a deep understanding of mathematics, quantum algorithms and programming that cannot be expected by humanists. Consequently, they cannot explore potentially promising applications or apply concrete potentials of quantum algorithms. The proposed architecture and method aim at exactly this, enabling (digital) humanists to easily build their own quantum applications in the focus area of quantum machine learning to allow a broad use and critical evaluation of the potentials of quantum algorithms for humanities research.
